will e-tec 200 heads work?

I just got some e-tec 200 heads with 64cc and I have a 350 vortec block, my question is will this combo work or is it too much head? What cam and rockers do you recomend for a street friendly car with power? All imput appreciated. By the way running a stock tpi system

No; no problem; should be fine.

I'd suggest something about like a Comp "503" http://www.summitracing.com/parts/cca-08-503-8

You are no doubt aware that a "stock TPI" won't bolt to those heads, right?

Yes Im betting on a base on ebay if I dont win ill go with stealth ram. So nothing on my block has to be changed? Also will my stock roller rockers work on these heads with that cam? How bout my springs? Thanx in advance

Yes they'll bolt right up to your block, no changes.

Not sure about "stock roller rockers"; no such thing on any SBC, EVER. You'll have to give more details about whatever you've REALLY got.

Not sure about the springs they put on those heads; you'll have to check with Eddie about those to be certain. But if memory serves, the odds are at least good.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Edelbrock-60989-E-Tec-200-Cylinder-Head-/111131251669?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT&nma=true&si=e4Ty0rA%252FJHftIe%252FyzX1qHr5vicQ%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

These are the heads i got and some of the specs, Heads were recently decked .005, and had a valve job. New seals and screw in studs. Im very new to heads i just have basic mechanic skills, im sorry if some of my questions sound stupid but i always get stiffed by mechanics, thanx in advance
